If you look at IBM over the past 3 years, its share price hit $43.5037 on June 23, 1997. Before that its price was even lower. If you go back to 1990, the price was about $10.00 (I remember this well as I used to work for IBM back then).

One system that will make money in the invest at highest point and sell at lowest point scenario is if you short the stock. Interestingly enough, I received a question the other day on whether Automatic Investor can be used to short stocks.

Off the top of my head I would say it's possible, but would be interested in hearing from anyone who has thought about this or better yet tried it.

Regards,
Mark.
